public final class ValueRange extends Object implements Serializable
The range of valid values for a date-time field.
All TemporalField
instances have a valid range of values. For example, the ISO day-of-month runs from 1 to somewhere between 28 and 31. This class captures that valid range.
It is important to be aware of the limitations of this class. Only the minimum and maximum values are provided. It is possible for there to be invalid values within the outer range. For example, a weird field may have valid values of 1, 2, 4, 6, 7, thus have a range of '1 - 7', despite that fact that values 3 and 5 are invalid.
Instances of this class are not tied to a specific field.
public static ValueRange of(long min, long max)
Obtains a fixed value range.
This factory obtains a range where the minimum and maximum values are fixed. For example, the ISO month-of-year always runs from 1 to 12.
min
- the minimum valuemax
- the maximum valueIllegalArgumentException
- if the minimum is greater than the maximumpublic static ValueRange of(long min, long maxSmallest, long maxLargest)
Obtains a variable value range.
This factory obtains a range where the minimum value is fixed and the maximum value may vary. For example, the ISO day-of-month always starts at 1, but ends between 28 and 31.
min
- the minimum valuemaxSmallest
- the smallest maximum valuemaxLargest
- the largest maximum valueIllegalArgumentException
- if the minimum is greater than the smallest maximum, or the smallest maximum is greater than the largest maximumpublic static ValueRange of(long minSmallest, long minLargest, long maxSmallest, long maxLargest)
Obtains a fully variable value range.
This factory obtains a range where both the minimum and maximum value may vary.
minSmallest
- the smallest minimum valueminLargest
- the largest minimum valuemaxSmallest
- the smallest maximum valuemaxLargest
- the largest maximum valueIllegalArgumentException
- if the smallest minimum is greater than the smallest maximum, or the smallest maximum is greater than the largest maximum or the largest minimum is greater than the largest maximumpublic boolean isFixed()
Is the value range fixed and fully known.
For example, the ISO day-of-month runs from 1 to between 28 and 31. Since there is uncertainty about the maximum value, the range is not fixed. However, for the month of January, the range is always 1 to 31, thus it is fixed.
public long getMinimum()
Gets the minimum value that the field can take.
For example, the ISO day-of-month always starts at 1. The minimum is therefore 1.
public long getLargestMinimum()
Gets the largest possible minimum value that the field can take.
For example, the ISO day-of-month always starts at 1. The largest minimum is therefore 1.
public long getSmallestMaximum()
Gets the smallest possible maximum value that the field can take.
For example, the ISO day-of-month runs to between 28 and 31 days. The smallest maximum is therefore 28.
public long getMaximum()
Gets the maximum value that the field can take.
For example, the ISO day-of-month runs to between 28 and 31 days. The maximum is therefore 31.
public boolean isIntValue()
Checks if all values in the range fit in an int
.
This checks that all valid values are within the bounds of an int
.
For example, the ISO month-of-year has values from 1 to 12, which fits in an int
. By comparison, ISO nano-of-day runs from 1 to 86,400,000,000,000 which does not fit in an int
.
This implementation uses getMinimum()
and getMaximum()
.
int
public boolean isValidValue(long value)
Checks if the value is within the valid range.
This checks that the value is within the stored range of values.
value
- the value to checkpublic boolean isValidIntValue(long value)
Checks if the value is within the valid range and that all values in the range fit in an int
.
This method combines isIntValue()
and isValidValue(long)
.
value
- the value to checkint
public long checkValidValue(long value, TemporalField field)
Checks that the specified value is valid.
This validates that the value is within the valid range of values. The field is only used to improve the error message.
value
- the value to checkfield
- the field being checked, may be nullisValidValue(long)
public int checkValidIntValue(long value, TemporalField field)
Checks that the specified value is valid and fits in an int
.
This validates that the value is within the valid range of values and that all valid values are within the bounds of an int
. The field is only used to improve the error message.

- the field being checked, may be nullisValidIntValue(long)
public boolean equals(Object obj)
Checks if this range is equal to another range.
The comparison is based on the four values, minimum, largest minimum, smallest maximum and maximum. Only objects of type ValueRange
are compared, other types return false.
equals
in class Object
obj
- the object to check, null returns falseObject.hashCode()
, HashMap
public int hashCode()
A hash code for this range.
hashCode
in class Object
Object.equals(java.lang.Object)
, System.identityHashCode(java.lang.Object)
public String toString()
Outputs this range as a String
.
The format will be '{min}/{largestMin} - {smallestMax}/{max}', where the largestMin or smallestMax sections may be omitted, together with associated slash, if they are the same as the min or max.
